Customize Keyboard Shortcuts

I installed a package atom-textile-preview, and want to toggle preview panel with keyboard shortcuts 'Ctrl-Alt-m'.

First get the command of the 'toggle' action in file menus/textile-preview.cson in atom-textile-preview : textile-preview:toggle.

Open 'keymap.cson' with 'Edit -> Keymap'. Add the following lines in it:

'atom-text-editor':
  'ctrl-alt-m': 'textile-preview:toggle'

No need to restart atom. The shortcut will work after you save 'keymap.cson'. See Keymaps In-Depth for details about shortcuts customization.

Import Global Settings

ctrl-.: toggle Keybinding Resolver;

ctrl-,: open "Settings" panel;

Search shortcuts in [Settings -> Keybindings]

vim mode

Frequently used shortcuts in Vim Mode:

ctrl-k s/v: split panel horizontal/vertical;

ctrl-w,w: switch focus between 2 panels;

ctrl-w, h/j/k/l: switch focus to left/down/up/right panel;

ctrl-w,q: close panel;

Get all shortcuts in vim mode in ~/.atom/packages/vim-mode/keymaps/vim-mode.cson

vim-mode-clipboard-plus

Use yy to copy from Atom to outside, and use p to paste from outside into Atom.

If you install vim-mode-plus instead of vim-mode, check Use Vim Mode Plus in the Settings of this plugin.

ex-mode

Use :w, :q, :sv, :sp.

Keyboard localization

Purpose: use ";" instead of ":" in vim-mode to invoke ex-command.

Install this package, and create file "/home/leo/.atom/packages/keyboard-localization/mykeymaps.json":

{
    "186": {
        "unshifted": 58
    }
}

Set above path value to [Settings -> Packages -> keyboard-localization]: Settings, "Use Keyboard Layout From Path".

See Keyboard localization for how to generate above json file.

Git

Git-Plus.

For example: discard all changes from last commit:

ctrl-shift-h
Run
reset --hard HEAD
